DistilBook is an AI explainer video generator, whiteboard animation maker and PDF to video converter. It turns documents, articles and written prompts into narrated, animated explainer videos in 15 visual styles. Use it to make training videos, education and course videos, product explainers and YouTube content from material you already have, without filming, drawing or hiring an animator.
How it works. Upload a PDF, Word, Markdown or text file, add an image, paste a web link, or type a topic. DistilBook writes a narration script and pauses so you can review and edit every line, or paste your own. It then draws original artwork for each slide, reveals it in time with the narration, and adds captions.
Visual styles. Choose from 15 styles: hand-drawn whiteboard animation for whiteboard and doodle videos, Hand-Drawn Education and Sketch Notebook for lessons, Navy and Red Editorial for compliance training, Editorial Flat Vector for onboarding, Minimal Yellow Line for SOPs, Isometric Illustration for how things work, Doodle Color Pop for customer education, Bauhaus Poster for AI and tech concepts, Soft 3D Coral for biographies, and Inkwash Journal for book summaries. Every illustration is drawn for your topic, not taken from a stock library.
Training videos. Use DistilBook as a training video maker for employee training, onboarding, compliance, safety, SOPs and processes, sales enablement and leadership programs. Turn policies, handbooks and manuals into consistent, branded training videos, review the script so the wording stays accurate, and make versions in more than 20 languages.
Education and course videos. Create online course videos, e-learning lessons, lecture videos, exam prep and tutoring content from lesson notes, textbook chapters and slides saved as PDF. Teachers, tutors, course creators and exam-prep publishers use it for classroom lessons and research paper summaries, with whiteboard lessons of up to about 36 minutes.
Business and creator videos. Make product explainers, customer education and how-to videos, and animated explainers of AI and technology concepts. Creators use it for YouTube explainers, faceless channels, book summaries and biography videos, and vertical 9:16 videos for YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels and TikTok.
Editing and branding. Set the video length, then edit every slide after generation: narration, images, title and animation. Your logo and brand colours are applied to every scene on every paid plan. Videos come in 16:9 or 9:16, with more than 20 narration languages, OCR for scanned PDFs, and MP4 export up to 1440p on paid plans.
Pricing. Free to try with 30 credits and no credit card. Paid plans are Basic at $15, Pro at $35 and Max at $75 a month, with editing and branding on every plan. Basic, Pro and Max accept PDFs of up to 10, 30 and 999 pages.
